Managing User Permissions for Inventory

ML Work Orders™ uses a series of Roles that contain specific Permissions to determine what aspects of the system a user can access and what they can do.  Each district can create custom names for the roles which they want to use and assign the appropriate permissions.

There are 3 permissions involving Inventory:

1. Manage Inventory: Gives User the ability to Add, Edit, or Adjust inventory items
2. View Inventory: Gives the User the ability to view inventory items, but does not allow them to edit these items.

3. View Inventory Reports: Gives the User the ability to view the inventory tracking and consumption reports.
4. Add Inventory to Work Orders: Gives the User the ability to add inventory items to work orders.

5. Approve Inventory Requests on Behalf of Others: Gives the User the ability to approve inventory requests even if the request is pending another User's approval.

6. Complete Inventory Requests on Behalf of Others: Gives the User the ability to complete inventory requests even if the request is assigned to another User.

7. Can be Assigned Inventory: Gives the User the ability to be assigned inventory requests. The User will show up as an option when assigning inventory requests to be delivered.

8. Request Inventory: Gives the User the ability to submit an inventory request.
